[Hiring] Senior FP&A Analyst @Frontline Wildfire Defense

Role Description

As a Senior FP&A Analyst at Frontline, you will own the financial models, the 13-week cash flow, and the consolidated reporting that gives leadership a real picture of where the business stands and where it's headed. Frontline operates across multiple entities with three distinct revenue models - milestone-based construction installations, hardware sales, and recurring software subscriptions - each with its own financial dynamics. Pulling that picture together accurately, and communicating it clearly, is the job.

Reporting to the VP of Finance, you will build and maintain the models, own the cash flow forecast, and synthesize data across multiple systems into the KPIs and analysis that drive decisions. This is not a role for someone who runs a model and reports the output. The right person understands the inputs deeply enough to know when the model is missing something - and has the expertise and intellectual rigor to catch it before it reaches leadership.

We use AI tools to accelerate the development of financial models and analysis. What we need from you is not the ability to prompt an AI - it's the financial expertise to know when the output is wrong, what data it didn't account for, and what questions to ask to get it right. That kind of critical thinking, grounded in deep financial knowledge, is what separates meaningful analysis from a fast first draft.

Key Responsibilities

• Financial Modeling:
  • Build, own, and maintain financial models across revenue, expenses, headcount, and capital.
  • Develop scenario models and sensitivity analysis that give leadership clear visibility into the financial impact of operational and strategic decisions.
  • Design models that are structurally sound, well-documented, and built to be used and understood by others.
• Cash Flow Forecasting:
  • Own the 13-week cash flow forecast for a multi-entity company.
  • Identify cash flow risks and opportunities proactively.
  • Reconcile forecast to actuals and refine the model over time.
• Consolidated Reporting & KPIs:
  • Pull, organize, and consolidate financial and operational data across multiple systems and entities.
  • Own the monthly and quarterly financial reporting packages for leadership.
  • Build and maintain the consolidated P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow views.
• Budgeting & Forecasting:
  • Lead the annual budgeting process in partnership with the VP of Finance.
  • Maintain rolling forecasts that update as the business evolves.
  • Support long-range financial planning and investor-related analysis as needed.
• Cross-Functional Partnership:
  • Partner with the Controller and accounting team to ensure FP&A models are grounded in accurate actuals.
  • Work directly with department leaders to understand their cost drivers and operational changes.
  • Support the VP of Finance on ad hoc analysis, board materials, and investor reporting.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field.
• 5+ years of FP&A experience, with demonstrated ownership of financial models in a complex, multi-entity or multi-revenue-stream business.

• Proven ability to pull and organize data across multiple systems and entities to produce consolidated KPIs, dashboards, and management reports.
• Strong financial modeling skills: Excel and/or Google Sheets mastery.
• The analytical rigor to validate model outputs.
• Ability to communicate financial results and insights clearly to non-finance audiences.
